Asthma
& Mold
Inhaling mold spores is a factor
in causing asthma in children.
For millions of Americans,
taking a breath is a major task. The culprit, asthma, affects more than 17
million Americans, including five million children. Asthma is a chronic
disease in which air flow in and out of the lungs is impeded by swelling,
constriction, and inflammation of the bronchial tubes, as was well as
excess mucus production within those tubes. The airways of all people
constrict when exposed to certain irritants like pollen, pollutants or
some drugs. People without asthma can usually make the airways relax again
quickly just by taking deep breaths. People with asthma cannot do that.
Patients my find their condition
triggered or worsened by several factors, which can be allergic or
non-allergic in nature. Allergic asthma means that asthma symptoms become
more intense, perhaps even result in an "asthma attack," when
the individual is exposed to allergens to which their immune system is
sensitive. The inflamed airways of asthmatics are sometimes described as
"twitchy", and inhaling pollens, molds, animal dander or other
allergens can cause the airways to become even more inflamed, produce
mucus and constrict. Most asthma in children is allergic in nature.
With non-allergic asthma, sufferers' symptoms
worsen when they are around certain irritants, such as viruses, weather
changes, air pollution, strong odors, anxiety, or other triggers Those
irritants do not a cause a reaction in the immune system as allergens do.
Still they can exacerbate symptoms for asthmatics. Courtesy of the
American Academy of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology [U.S.A. Today,

Asthma Health Questions
Q.
I am an occupational health nurse advisor
in the United Kingdom and need advice on desktop humidifiers in an office
setting. I have clients where employees with asthma ask for desktop
humidifiers at work. It have been told that these can increase the growth of
mould in some cases which can exacerbate asthma. This seems to be in cases
of house dust allergy. Would you advise for or against desk top humidifiers
in large open plan offices. How does air conditioning affect mold growth?
[June 18, 2004]
A.
The humidifiers will definitely increase indoor humidity which can cause
mold to grow. Indoor humidity needs to be kept in the 30 to 40% range to
discourage mold growth. In order to achieve that in UK, or most places,
there would need to be a dehumidifier in operation. If
someone has asthma problems, he or she does not need the added threat from
living and working in mold infestation which makes asthma problems worse, as
well as posing additional health threats. Air conditioning usually is good
for mold prevention because it is continually removing moisture from the
incoming air. The bad side of air conditioning is that if there is a mold
problem in a house or building, there will be likely mold growth inside the
heating/cooling equipment and ducts, and the heating/cooling operations will
efficiently spread mold cross-contamination everywhere in the home or
building. You should also determine whether an office already has low or
high levels of airborne mold spores with our do it yourself mold test kits
which are available for delivery in the United Kingdom. Your first and most
affordable mold investigative step to learn the severity and the extent of
the possible mold infestation is to use do it yourself mold test kits
[self observation of results over a 5 to 7 day time period, or send in for
mold lab analysis] to mold test the air
of each room, attic, basement, crawl space, and the outward air flow from
each heating/cooling duct register for the possible presence of elevated
levels of airborne mold spores, in comparison to an outdoor mold control
test which you should also do. You can buy do it yourself mold test kits at
a large hardware or home improvement store. If you see any visible mold growth, from each
moldy area, scrape some of the mold particles into a separate mold test kit
per testing location for observation over a 5 to 7 day time period, and/or
for mold lab analysis. When scraping mold into a test kit, you would be wise
to use a breathing air respirator [Home Depot or Lowe’s or a safety store]
so that you don’t breathe in extra mold spores that you put into the air by
scraping some mold-like substances into each mold test kit. Test kits
come with detailed use
instructions to make your tests
informative and helpful in mold problem diagnosis. Learn how to do your
own, self-observation analysis of mold test kits results at
